Scientists Create First Functional Brain Tissue Using 3D Printing
A research team from the University of Wisconsin-Madison has successfully printed the first ever functional brain tissue using a commercial 3D printer in their laboratory. This breakthrough may be beneficial not only for scientists studying the pathogenesis of neurological and neurodevelopmental diseases but could even mark the beginning of a journey towards a deeper understanding of how neurons function, how brain development occurred, and how different parts of the brain communicate with each other.
